I miss having President Ronald Reagan as my President. He was a great leader and visionary who loved his Country and had the courage to beleive that we as a people could become Great. You don't manage a country. You Lead!

Loved hearing the Great Communicator again!Unfortunately, the publisher, ABN altered he & Nancy's anti-drug speech in chapter 12 to make it sound like they were pro-drug use.This makes me wonder what other speeches or other books they have taken liberties with. If you have a book with ABN as the publisher, be warned.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Still loved how He loved America and reminded us how great it was.

What does Ronald Reagan bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Unfortunately, due to chapter 12, I fear, ABN may have added or cut things from the President's speeches.

Any additional comments?

Integrity to the text is paramount when converting works into an audio format. ABN and their employees has abused this trust. I hope they will be forced to re-produce Chapter 12 in it's correct format.

Very worth listening to, I only wish the speeches were in chronological order so that you would get the overall story of his presidency. Hard to put the pieces together when the timeline bounces all over the place.
